I recently came upon this post:
Could lactate have some benefit for our health and performance? Especially brain health? What is your opinion on that? (Yes, I'am educated in Strong Endurance philosophy. :) I asked the author for the scientific source of his claims but haven't received it yet.)
Has anyone tried adjusting other variables in an A+ A program when you don’t have the prescribed bell size?
In a few days I’ll have my snatch test bell after a months long absence from iron and want to do some snatching (and other skills practice) for the few months I have it.
While one...
Pavel and SF just freely shared SE plan 025 using swings/snatches and recommended for obstacle course racing conditioning. Was curious if anyone has used this type of plan for OCR training and what your experience was like?
Esteemed Fellow Forum Members,
I'm writing on behalf of a good friend of mine. He's a dedicated kettlebell enthusiast, serious athlete, and he's currently undertaking his master's degree at Beijing Sports University, China’s leading institution for sports studies. His specialisation lies in...
Hey everyone, I'm a coach from Portsmouth, UK, who owns a studio called On Form Fitness Studio.
My goal with training is to learn through myself what it takes and requires to get stronger, be fitter, and move pain-free. I then pass this on to my members so they can live better lives.
I'm going...
Hi all, I have been following string first for about 2 years now and love it, I have done the built strong minimalist, strength endurance, and S&S protocols. I have recently decided to do a sprint triathlon and wanted to use kettle bells and string first methodology for my strength training...
I am very interested and intrigued by what is known as the Strong Endurance protocol, but I have a problem.
I don't live near any of the locations where the seminars are held (and there doesn't seem to be any on the schedule) and I don't live near any trainers that would be able to give me...
Intro
I've recently seen fit to try my hand at a Strong Endurance hypertrophy protocol using Glycolytic Power Repeats. And I thought this might be good to share.
I would like to state here that with some infrequency this protocol could be performed with any ballistic movement. Snatch, explosive...
Hi all,
I have both the Quick & Dead and the Kettlebell Strong First and I intend to do both back to back for 12 weeks each.
I am wondering, if I had only one pair of 24 kg kettlebells, which program should I start with to get the most out of both programs? (like in milking / owning the bell...
In his book The Quick and The Dead, Pavel writes about what should be done when the training feels too easy - add power, use a band, etc. - several times. He also pointed out that one should never compress the rest periods. His stressing it makes me wonder if I am doing it wrong. I have been...
I am currently training for my first Ironman 70.3 (1.9km swim / 90km bike / 21km run)
The last two months of training (Jan & Feb) have been focused only on getting swim, bike and run fit.
How best can I start incorporating KB training into my weekly routine, without it negatively impacting my...
I have a question regarding protocol #6.
I'm wanting to work on pullup endurance but when I go to calculate my session volume, it says to not go over 50 reps for the day. The calculation for session volume is RMx5 so my daily volume would be over 50 reps.
Any clarification on this would be...

in the above post, @Geoff Neupert commends those participating in his programs for resting more and opines about resting more than you otherwise might in...
I'm debating whether or not to attend Strong Endurance coming up in Florida. I would love to attend in person, but work/family likely will not allow it. Even if I attend online at home, I almost assuredly won't be able to remain captive to the screen for the duration. If you've attended Strong...
Was wondering how people on here would use StrongFirst principles and other approaches to program for obstacle course racing. This was something I did years ago, with some moderate success (top 20 placing in shorter races and completion of OCR lengths all the way up to Spartan Ultra). But I...
There is a Crossfit WOD called Shawn that I've been interested in doing since I first heard about it. Basically, you run 5 miles, but after each 5-minute interval you have to do 50 pushups and 50 air squats. I've trained for strength for many years. I've also run 10 miles before, but never...
Would love to attend the All-Terrain training, but it's costly and not in the budget. Any suggestions on resources to learn some of the principles, protocols, etc from these workshops? Best books, articles, etc?
Hey everyone - I am newbie to the forum (but a long time follower of Strongfirst programming). I have completed the fighter pulp program in the past, (did simple and sinister for a bit but never completed the program) and recently completed quick and the dead and loved it.
I am 39 yrs young in...
Hi, I’m really interest in Strong Endurance and I hope that i will attend SE or All terrain Conditioning course. Right now I’m on Q&D program with great results but seeking for more. My biggest interest are intermediate fibers templates 8-11 because there are for First Responders and Military...
